  • Gathering of the Vibes 2008 Chad Berndtson July 29, 2008 Having
    Preview: Gathering of the Vibes 2008 Chad Berndtson July 29, 2008 Having recently finished an enterprise feature for another publication on the glut of national music festivals and what role that glut creates for regional festivals with a lot more personality, I’m more excited this year for the Gathering of the Vibes than I have been in quite some time. As the man said, “He’d have to be one charming motherfuckin pig”…er, sorry, “Personality goes a long way.” Compared to the Roo- and Coachella-sized behemoths, and a lot of the sexy new kids with names both playful and official-sounding—Rothbury might be a bit of both, and allegedly, it was quite the time—the Vibes is a creakier, more elegant dinosaur. A glorious, humble triceratops of a festival, yes, secure in its size, pleasant in its modest ambition and its abilities, not ostentatious, and kindly manageable. And damn isn’t it great to have it back in New England proper (it returned in 2007 after several years of renovation to Bridgeport’s Seaside Park and a few years at various upstate New York locales)? For this born/bred New Englander, it’s not only in a New England/Tri-State area happy medium, but it fills a still-felt void left by the big Phish festivals of yore and especially the can’t-believe-it’s-been-five-years-now departed Berkshire Mountain Music Festival (1997-2003). (For Berkfest alums from those heady days, monsoon conditions and all, have a scoop of nostalgia on the house) The Vibes doesn’t have the gaudy cache of some festivals, or some of the nationally dazzling headliners.

  • I's the Merb'y: Masculinity, Mermen and Contemporary Newfoundland
    I’S THE MERB’Y Masculinity, Mermen and Contemporary Newfoundland [Received 22nd April 2018; accepted 29th July 2018 – DOI: 10.21463/shima.12.2.17] Philip Hayward University of Technology Sydney <[email protected]> Cory W. Thorne Memorial University of Newfoundland <[email protected]> ABSTRACT: In late 2017 initial, low-key publicity for a charity calendar featuring a range of bearded Newfoundlanders posing as mermen resulted in international media coverage that discussed and commended the non-stereotypical images produced for the project. This article situates the calendar’s imagery within the history of regional folklore concerning mermen and mermaids, the socio-cultural character of the island of Newfoundland and, in particular, the milieu of its port capital, St. John’s. Through these perspectives, the article analyses aspects of masculinity present in an island society that has experienced significant transitions in recent decades in relation to the decline of its fishery, the increasing work- related mobility of former fisherpeople, increasing ethnic diversity and immigration, and the breaking down of once strongly held attitudes of Newfoundland as being isolated, homogenous and tradition-based. In terms of Island Studies discourse, this has involved the island’s transition from being a relatively autonomous aquapelagic assemblage to an increasingly post-aquapelagic one firmly incorporated within a nation-state. Long viewed as a quintessential “folk setting”, Newfoundland is in a state of change that includes the gradual modification of regional stereotypes of masculinity. The revised images and roles presented in the calendar can be seen to represent new, more fluid definitions of masculinity appropriate for an increasingly more cosmopolitan — yet proudly unique — island society.

  • Miakonda Guitar Book 4.Pdf
    By Liz Wanless and the Grundys 4th Edition, 2008 Name: _ _ th Preface to the 4 Edition Welcome to the most intense Guitar Book yet! The book has come a long way since its 35-page first edition, and could not have been made possible without the support and enthusiasm of guitar jammers everywhere, from Birch Island to Algonquin Park, up north and beyond. Special thanks to Rob Grundy for his constant encouragement, editing, and contributions to this and past editions. Also, big high-fives to Ian Grundy, Rich Howard and Hil Best for their contributions, and to the Montreal chapter of Mi-A-Kon-Da and the McGill Outdoors Club for their suggestions and for testing out the book! I hope this book brings you all good times around the campfire, wherever that may be. Ashley Garrod 1985-2007 The 2008 edition of the Guitar Book is dedicated to Ashley Garrod, an outstanding Tanamakoon staff member and life-long camper who will always be remembered for her passion, devotion, and enthusiasm for camp and life. I will always remember her sitting patiently with her guitar book learning new songs and rocking out old favourites, and thank her for her guidance and leadership in Outdoor Ed and summer camp. Rock on, Ash. This book is intended for the personal use and enjoyment of campers, counsellors, and Outdoors Clubs. Many of the songs in the book are original tablatures, and many were adapted from crappy online versions. The tablatures in this book represent interpretations of artists’ work, which is property of the artists.

  • Event and Press Information
    EVENT AND PRESS INFORMATION Life As A Zebra Foundation Why Life as a Zebra? In medical school, students are taught to diagnose patients based on the condition that’s most likely. This idea goes along with the saying: “When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras.” The horses are the likely explanation, while the zebras are less likely. A medical zebra, then, is a person with a rare medical condition. Life as a Zebra Foundation’s Mission The Life as a Zebra Foundation educates, advocates, and secures funds and charitable contributions for the prevention, treatment, and research of various hard to diagnose invisible illnesses including, but not limited to, Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome, dysautonomia, and vasculitis. What We Do Secure funds for education, prevention, treatment, and research of various invisible illnesses including, but not limited to, Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome, dysautonomia, and vasculitis. Build a community of people who care about eradicating various chronic, invisible illnesses. Inspire and advocate for people who live with chronic, invisible illnesses by sharing personal stories about living with chronic illnesses through print and public speaking engagements. Accomplishments Life as a Zebra Foundation became a domestic, nonprofit foundation on November 8, 2012. The Life as a Zebra Foundation as raised nearly $70,000 for invisible illness awareness, education, and research in the three years since its establishment. The Life as a Zebra Foundation spearheaded the adoption of a resolution for Invisible Illness Awareness Week in the state of Michigan, held May 25-31, 2014. In June of 2014, members of the Life as a Zebra Foundation board traveled to Washington, D.C.

  • This Is a Great Band, and I Had a Great Time” Bob Weir, Grateful Dead Founding Member (Guitar/Vocalist)
    “This is a great band, and I had a great time” Bob Weir, Grateful Dead founding member (guitar/vocalist) “Inspired and accomplished musical discourse at such a deep and serious level: I had no problem at all believing that this was what the Grateful Dead sounded like 40 years ago.” David Gans, Grateful Dead Hour “I've always been impressed by DSO, but the other night I thought they'd taken it to a new level. It was some of the best Grateful Dead music I've heard in the past 20 years, and that covers some ground. Somehow, Jeff Mattson manages to play Jerry's parts perfectly in the spirit, but without any sense of being imitative. And boy, does the band pick up on this energy. Big fun!” Dennis McNally, Grateful Dead publicist & biographer 1980 – 1995; Author “A Long Strange Trip: The History of the Grateful Dead” “As one who is classically trained, I actually always thought that DSO was very cool, treating Grateful Dead music as repertoire- much as I've tried to do in my various bands.” Phil Lesh, Grateful Dead founding member (bass/vocals) “Playing with Dark Star Orchestra is something that feels just exactly like it felt when I was playing with the Grateful Dead.” Donna Jean Godchaux, Grateful Dead vocalist, frequent DSO guest “There are moments where I can close my eyes and go back 30 years and have it be every bit as rewarding and satisfying. Dark Star is an amazingly legitimate representation of the Dead.” Dan Healy, Grateful Dead sound engineer 1966 -1994 “Thank you for a real good time.” Jon Fishman, Phish drummer after sitting in with DSO “The Dark Star Orchestra re-creates Grateful Dead shows with a flashback-inducing meticulousness.” The New Yorker “...recreates the Dead concert experience with uncanny verisimilitude.
